Alright! I will form the habit of literally counting with things like

one and two and three and four and.

Though I'm thinking in terms of "one e and a" "two e and a" "three e and a" etc...


Plus, I figured out an additional way. I count 3 minutes of this on my iPhone. Or, better yet, I have a Sony Digital Voice Recorder. On this unit I record 3 minutes of

"One and two and three and four"

And then, because it has whats called "Digital Pitch Control" it will allow me to play back faster or slower at plus or minus 5% intervals.

It really helps to have a teacher speaking over your shoulder on passages that need to be slowed way down and studied. The "editable Notation Mode in Band in Box is also very helpful for this.

Thank you again.
